导学第一步——填一填·跟着教材学写作
【教材原文】 【写作借鉴】
On 7 December, 2015, Tu Youyou was awarded a Nobel Prize for her discovery of artemisinin, a lifesaving drug for malaria.
Tu Youyou majored in medicine in university and later studied Chinese medicine with experts in the field.
In 1969, Tu Youyou was given the mission to set up a team to find a cure for malaria. When worldwide scientists failed to find a cure using modern chemicals, Tu Youyou turned to Chinese herbs for help. Despite their limited resources and hundreds of failed experiments, they found a possible chemical. In order to test the medicine, Tu Youyou and her team tested the medicine on their own bodies. They finally discovered the most effective drug to cure the disease.
Although Tu Youyou has won the Nobel Prize and become wellknown, she is uninterested in fame and prefers to continue her research.
